As we mentioned last week, Guitar World recently roasted Zakk Wylde, and managed to snag a cavalcade of stars to help 'em out, including Rob Halford, Duff McKagan, Corey Taylor, Scott Ian, and comedians Brian Posehn and Jim Florentine. One dude who did not make an appearance at the event, however, was Jim Breuer, a comedian who, like [...]

So the young 'uns might not remember this, but back in 1995, following the release of Ozzmosis, Zakk Wylde actually had to bow out of Ozzy Osbourne's touring group. The reason? 'Cause Mr. Wylde was busy waiting to see if he got the second guitarist spot in the then-biggest band in the world, Guns N' Roses. GN'R's [...]

Ep.507 - Guns N' Roses @ Bridgestone Arena - Nashville, TN 12-4-11 Guns N' Roses Video Concert Reviews - Nashville, TN For those of you who went to see Guns N' Roses at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Sunday, you're probably like me…wishing it was last Friday again. This time last week, I had no idea what I was in for. Sure, I was pumped when we finally had the tickets in hand, but I didn't realize that Axl was going to put on a three-hour performance packed with pyro [...]

I have finally reached the point where I can't even muster outrage or disappointment over Zakk Wylde's career choices. Twenty years ago, I probably would have lept from an airplane without a 'chute if the dude had asked me to. Ten years ago, if he had announced that he was doing a guest spot on, [...]

photos by Kurt Christiansen Judas Priest @ Izod Center "Pop "retirements" prove to be about as reliable as political promises. Witness the "just kidding, folks" resurrections of briefly absent stars Barbra Streisand, David Bowie and Cher. So fans might be forgiven for rolling their eyes over Judas Priest's announcement some months back that their current road show... would be their "final" one. "I wish we had a better word than final," says Priest [...]

After years of waiting, Dark New Day fans finally got to hear the band's second record, Hail Mary, this past August, along with an equally impressive B-sides collection. For those of us that had waited patiently the release of these two albums was heartily welcomed, but it also raised a number of questions: why'd it [...]

FBI labels Juggalos a gang Gigantour 2012 dates revealed Maynard James Keenan gives an update on the new Tool album Coheed and Cambria drummer quits Lamb of God releasing new album Black Label Society releases Christmas EP Tony Iommi releases a book Iced Earth tour dates

I'm not sure if you guys recall, but a few years back Twisted Sister released a horrible Christmas album called A Twisted Christmas. It was so bad, we here at Metal Injection created an Anti-Christmas special based around the release of that album alone, and how it corrupts people. Well, it looks like we may ...

Judas Priest, Black Label Society and Thin Lizzy Allen Event Center Sunday, October 16, 2011 Better than: getting all decked out in studs and leather and going to Oak Lawn. ​ Back in the '80s, ...

William Shatner's cover of "Iron Man" is the worst thing ever despite - or maybe, in part, because of - guitars by Zakk Wylde. So Metal Insider's assertion that the below video of Shatner recording vocals for that cover is better than the actual cover itself is dead on. Remember when we saw The Shat [...]

To help promote their upcoming tour, on October 11 Judas Priest will release The Chosen Few, their umpteenth career retrospective, and one which does not feature any new material. The Chosen Few does have a hook, though - I mean, beyond the fact that the band members appear on the cover only as silhouettes, I [...]

Last week the once-mighty, now-getting-to-be-pretty-sad Mike Portnoy announced the formation of a new band, Adrenaline Mob, with Symphony X singer Russell Allen, Stuck Mojo guitarist (and first ever MetalSucks interview subject) Rich Ward, and some dudes I've never heard of before. Our own Anso DF called the project "iffy," cringing at Allen's description of the band [...]

When I heard about the Dream Theater-shaped hole in the life of drummer Mike Portnoy back in September, I wanted to pitch him on my long-gestating idea to form a killer Jellyfish cover band. I bet he'd be into it cuz of his Jellyfish super-fandom (he has cited 19932s Spilt Milk as a top ten favorite album); [...]

News BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's Zakk Wyldetook part in a press conference before the band's June 11, 2011 performance at this year's edition of the Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg in southern Sweden.

Butt rock reigns yet again, with Seether nabbing the top spot for the second week in a row. Boris and Cave In cracked the Top Hard Music charts with their new albums (hooray!), while Hollywood Undead and Asking Alexandria actually experienced sales gains for the first time since their new records debuted a few weeks [...]
